the morale of foreign troops serving in the war zone. u.s. military officials say an attack on saturday that killed two americans was especially unnerving as several afghan soldiers and possibly insurgents opened fire from several directions. nbc's chief foreign correspondent, richard engel, has been covering this war for almost the full 11 years. he filed this report from kabul. >> reporter: this woman is about to die. executed for adultery. the man she was with got off scot-free. the taliban recently filmed this video of their justice as a warning and to say they're making a comeback. some 30 miles away in the village, we saw few signs of what the u.s. would consider progress in afghanistan and no evidence that the american plan to hand over to a credible, stable afghan government will work. these village elders tell me once u.s. troops leave, a civil war will begin, and u.s.-trained afghan forces will not be able to stop it. are you preparing for this fight? are you already stockpiling weapons and ammunition and getting yourself ready? "yes, we are. we will definitely fight," he says

the friday's announcement that the deadly assault on the u.s. consulate in bengahzi was deliberate and organized. peter king of new york called on susan rice to resign as u.s. ambassador to the united nations after she initially claimed the attack on the consulate was part of the spontaneous protest after an anti-islamic video. yesterday paul ryan and john mccain slammed the administration's handling of the deadly attack. >> the response was slow, confused, inconsistent. they first said it was a youtube video and a spontaneous mob. we now know it was a planned terrorist attack if this was one tragic incident that would be a tragedy in itself. the problem is it's part of a bigger picture that the obama foreign policy is unraveling before our eyes on tv screens. >> i think it interferes with the depiction that the administration is trying to convey that al qaeda is on the wane, everything is fine in the middle east. >> you think it's political? >> how else could you trot out our u.n. ambassador to say this was a spon ttaneous demonstrati? >> maybe they thought that at the time? >> on

to cooperation with israel. and the drawdown of u.s. forces from afghanistan. on the middle east peace process, romney sounded decidedly more optimistic than he did earlier this year during that secretly recorded private fund-raiser. >> i'll recommit america to the goal of a democratic prosperous palestinian state living side by side in peace and security with the jewish state of israel. >> i don't think the palestinians want to seek this yaen way for political purposes. these are the issues that i say there is just no way. you move thing as long the best way you can. you hope for some stability and you roy that it's going to remain until -- we look at taiwan. we have a potentially volatile situation and we live it with. we kick the ball down the field and hopefully somehow something will happen. >> the obama campaign was quick in its response to romney's speech at vmi. madelieine albright slammed the republican candidate during a conference call with reporters saying romney's foreign policy is full of platitudes but short on specifics. staying with foreign policy, we're learning more about th

picture is developing from the state department about what really happened when gunmen stormed the u.s. consulate in benghazi, libya and killed four americans including the u.s. ambassador there. the obama administration initially claimed the attacks stemmed from a protest over an anti-islam film produced in the united states. and posted to youtube. but officials at the state department say that was never their conclusion adding there was no protest at all. in fact, diplomats first realized they were under at being a when they heard exploegs and saw armed men entering their compound. a quick response team was dispatched with 60 libyan militia men to try to stop the assault, but they were too late. by then the attackers already had set fire to the building where ambassador chris stevens was hiding. that account directly conflicts the description of the attack provided on "meet the press" by u.s. ambassador to the u.n. susan rice. this was on september 16th, five days after the attack. >> putting together the best information that we have available to us today, our current assessment is

came to the u.s. on a student visa in january with the purpose of launching a terrorist attack and took classes in cybersecurity before trying to contact what he thought were al qaeda operatives. turns out those contacts were undercover agents with the fbi. wnbc's jonathan dienst is the chief investigative reporter and has the latest for us. jonathan. >> reporter: almost 24 hours after his arrest mohammed nafis remains behind bars without bail on the terror conspiracy counts, investigators say he tried to drive that van here to the federal reserve bank in lower manhattan and tried to set off a 1,000-pound bomb by remote control. but all along fbi, nypd and homeland security officials say they were on to him monitoring his every move and even provided through informants, some of the components for the bomb that were inert and that's why this part did not work, they say. they arrested him earlier this morning after they say he made a jihadist video claiming al qaeda had won, then he apparently left the van and went and tried to set off that explosion. investigators say they are looking in

city, we begin with new developments involving the attack on the u.s. consulate in benghazi, libya last month that left four americans dead including the u.s. ambassador there. the obama administration under steady fire under conflicting statements about what exactly happened on september 11th. secretary of state hillary clinton is stepping out now to take the blame, telling reporters during a trip to peru she's ultimately responsible for diplomat security. >> i take responsibility. i'm in charge of the state department. 60,000 plus people all over the world, 275 posts. the president and the vice president certainly wouldn't be knowledgeable about specific decisions that are made by security professionals. they are the ones who weigh all of the threats and the risks and the needs and make a considered decision. what i want to avoid is some kind of political gotcha or blame game going on, because that does a disservice to the thousands and thousands of americans, not only in the state department and usa i.d. but in the military that served around the world. >> it's not just been republic

house. the other thing that's interesting about this story if it's accurate is it sounds like the u.s. is taking a position that we're likely to jettison our allies. the last thing we want to do is abandon our allies and make it a one-on-one negotiation. some of the allies have been more forward leaning than we have been to make sure the sanctions are tough and put in place. >> owe bomb me's campaign senior advisor, david axlerod, had a different view of the situation in iraq. >> there's a tremendous disquiet in iran. their currency has dropped in value by 50%. their oil business has dropped by 50%. there's resttiveness in the political environment there and they're feeling the heat. that's what the sanctions were meant to do. remember, when he came to office we were isolated on our position on iran and in the world and today the world is unified against iran with us all because of the leadership of this president. >> and we're getting some new details this morning about the confusion within the obama administration following the attack on the u.s. consulate in benz, libya, that kille

very much. >>> it's been 23 days now since the deadly attack on the u.s. consulate in libya that killed four americans. now for the first time, an fbi team is finally on scene to investigate. the investigators sent to libya in the wake of the attack. because of security concerns, they didn't go to benghazi until yesterday. so under heavy security, the team reportedly spent about 13 hours on site collecting evidence. since last month's attack, a number of news outlets discovered sensitive documents at the compound themselves, including a journal belong together late ambassador chris stevens. attorney general eric holder says the probe has been active for weeks. just this morning, turkish media reports that two suspects have been detained in connection with the killing of ambassador stevens. nbc news has not independently confirmed that story. >>> later this morning, the september jobs report will be released. it will reportedly be better than august. let's go to jeff live in london. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you. the problem is, the economy's just not adding jobs fast en

including the u.s. ambassador. president obama's deputy campaign manager suggested the only reason the obama's handling of the attack is because the republicans are talking about it on the campaign trail. she said that was reckless and irresponsib irresponsible. last night, ryan blasted the white house. >> it took the president two weeks to announce it was a terrorist attack. if we are hit by terrorists, we are going call it what it is. this benghazi issue would be a tragedy in and of its, but it's a broader problem, that is what we are watching on tv screens is the unraveling of the policies. >> that's a bunch of mularkey. the congressman here cut embassy security in his budget by $300 million below what we asked for. >> the vice president weighed in and responded to claims the administration did not respond to requests for more security. >> we weren't told they want more security. we did not know they wanted more security. by the way, at the time, we were told exactly -- we said exactly what the intelligence community told us that they knew. that was the assessment. as they changed their v

of the u.s. consulate in libya. lindsey graham suggested the administration deliberately covered up details. they're trying to sell a narrative that the mideast, the wars are receding and al qaeda has been dismantled, and to admit our embassy was attacked by al qaeda operatives and libya did not work undercuts that narrative. they didn't believe media would investigate, congress was out of session and this caught up with them. there was no way with anybody looking at all that you could believe five days after the attack that it was based on a riot that never occurred. there was no riot at all. to say that, you are either incompetent or misleading. >>> democrats are dismissing these as politically moetivated allegations. >>> the 14-year-old girl shot last week by the taliban for promoting girls education is now heading to britton for specialized treatment. malala yousufzai was reportedly flown out of the country today in an air ambulance provided by the united arab emirates. it comes six days after she was attacked in pakistan by a gunman while riding home in a school van last tuesday. she w
